Jenna-Louise begins filming Doctor Who

After a readthrough on Monday, Jenna Louise-Coleman began shooting her first scenes as new companion on Doctor Who this week.

Filming has been taking place on location at the medieval manor of Plas Llanmihangel. The manor also has a church on the grounds. There’s a bit of an eerie quality to it, so the ghost story rumour could fit. Then again, that seems to stem from Coleman’s audition script, the one that Steven Moffat said would not make it to the screen in any form.

Jenna was spotted as she was leaving the location, so this is unlikely to be her costume (click to enlarge).

Filming was behind closed doors, so no further details unfortunately. But there is speculation Jenna’s companion could be from the past, which would make for a refreshing change.
